Well I thought I'd show ya'll what I've been up to with my car.. Took the advise and lowered it, and did some subtle body mods like different grille, and lights, markers, lip f/r and painted the brakes red.

For performance, I just got a higher boost pulley on and a custom tune, along with a belt wrap kit, billet idlers and tensioner, modded exhaust with deleted resonators, full 3.5" intake I made, HD IC pump, fmic heat exchanger, and I should be right around 600HP at the crank, over 600tq.

This is with TC on. If I turn it off, the car just smokes the tires up to 40mph. When I get some good tires on her, I'll be in the mid 3 second range 0-60

Nice! :rockon: I can't wait to get my belt wrap kit, idlers, pulley, and tune.

How was the install on the EC heat exchanger? I was looking at the PLM heat exchanger because it says it bolts right in with no mods.

Make sure to go to planetsupercar, then PM the member Shardul. Tell him nidyanazo sent ya, and I guarantee he will hook you up with a nice discount for all those parts.

If you take a look here I did a full on guide with videos and photos for the heat exchanger installation:

Is that really the car's engine bay or did you decide to chop transformer's chest out and stick it in there? LOL:) That shyt look effing mean! Woohoo..600tq!? Gotta love those hand built AMG's. One day when I win the lottery I plan to buy a brand spanking new AMG!

Cool, I'm really thinking of turning my AMG into the project car someday. They are just so fun and sound silly.

I've also changed all the interior lights too hyper white LEDs and also did the exterior lights either an HID 6000 K or LED

Thanks for all the nice words guys.
Truly the most amazing car I've owned. More than enough power for comfortable driving in any condition, the suspension that operates with hydraulic lines running shocks pressurized to 2800psi makes the car feel like its riding on air, or with the sport mode on makes it feel like a 3000lb car in the canyons. Plus the quality is superb. No issues in the 4000miles I but on it in the last couple months I've owned it.
